On the 7th of March 2025, Smart Residences Ltd. hosted its highly anticipated Employee Appreciation Day — a heartwarming and energetic event dedicated to honoring the staff whose dedication, innovation, and daily contributions have fueled the continuous growth and expansion of the Gidanka™ brand.
The event brought together team members from various departments for an afternoon of celebration, connection, and recognition. It featured inspiring speeches from senior management, interactive games, award presentations, and moments of heartfelt gratitude.
In his remarks, the Chief Operating Officer, Mallam Aliyu Hassan Aminu, praised the team’s resilience and unity, emphasizing that
“our people are the heartbeat of this brand — without your hard work, there is no Gidanka.”
Mr. Olajide Abiola, CEO, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the company’s long-term vision and the critical role each staff member plays in making that vision a reality.
The atmosphere was one of joy and pride as employees were celebrated not just for what they do — but for who they are. From facility teams to the front office, media to maintenance, every staff member was recognized as an essential part of Gidanka’s story.
As the event came to a close, it served as a reminder that the greatest asset of any brand is its people — and at Gidanka, that truth is deeply valued.
